scheduled award for 15% loss of use of lower extremity

I was wondering if anyone would know an approximate figure for 15% loss of use of lower extrimity. I reached MMI in october of 2011. My base salery is 49138.00....any info on this would be great!

The maximum award for 100% loss of use of the leg is 288 weeks. So 15% is 43.20 weeks. (15% x 288 = 43.20.)

Your compensation rate is 2/3rds (no dependents) or 3/4ths (at least one qualifying dependent) of your pay rate for compensation purposes. That pay rate may or may not be the same as your current rate of pay at your Federal job. You probably should convert your annual pay to a weekly pay rate simply by dividing by 52 weeks.

You should be able to come up with a ball park estimate of what you might receive. But, there are other factors that could influuence both your rate of pay and your compensation rate.

Thank you!! I appreciate you time!

 My scheduled award is being review by the medical examiner now, any idea on how long tis process takes from this point??

Varies from District Office to District Office and also can be somewhat dependent upon your CE.

I would give it six to eight weeks.

Thank you!
